This paper focuses on a recently proposed asymmetric base-isolation coupling control system (ABiCS) for the vibration control of adjacent twin buildings. The ABiCS consists of inter-story diagonal dampers, a connecting damper between the two buildings, and a seismic isolation device at the base floor of one building. To investigate the control characteristics of ABiCS, a parametric study was performed by numerically simulating the 20-story twin buildings. In the parametric study, the control capacities of the inter-story diagonal dampers, connecting damper, and seismic isolation device were considered as varying parameters. The parametric study results indicate that the connecting damper between the two buildings reduces the responses of both buildings only at optimal or near-optimal capacity. In addition, adjusting the stiffness of the base isolation is found to be the most effective method for improving seismic performance and achieving cost-effectiveness. Accordingly, we presented a scenario-based performance improvement approach in which reducing the stiffness of the base isolation device could be an effective technique to improve the seismic performance of both buildings. However, note that checking the maximum allowable displacement of the base isolation device is essential.

Base isolation is a widely used technique for the seismic control of structures as it reduces the structural seismic demand. However, displacement of the isolation layer is not economically feasible in congested urban areas. To resolve the issue, an innovative system is proposed here to isolate both horizontally at the base and vertically in the upper portion of the structure. A simplified linear three degree-of-freedom (3DOF) model of the system that considers the mass and stiffness ratios of the substructure has been introduced and analyzed in MATLAB by spectrum analysis. The 3DOF model results revealed that, when the period of the soft substructure reaches 2.5 times that of the stiff substructure, the isolation and the lower substructure responses decrease by 65% and 51%, respectively. Time-history analysis of a MDOF system at three frequency ratios under a wide range of ground motions indicated that, at the expense of accepting a certain large drift by the soft substructure in the upper portion of the structure, base isolation displacement can be decreased by 10%.

다차원적 사회적 고립은 신체적 정신적 건강의 위험요인으로 지적되어 왔다. 사회적 고립과 건강과의 관계에 대한 핵심 논의는 크게 두 가지로 정리할 수 있다. 첫째는 객관적 주관적 사회적 고립이 신체적 정신적 건강에 영향을 미치는 다양한 경로들의 역동성과 관련한 논쟁이 존재하고, 두 번째는 사회적 고립과 건강과의 관계에서 연령집단이 과연 선형적인 관계인가 또는 비선형적인 관계를 나타내는가와 관련한 논쟁이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 공분산을 설정한 상호작용모형을 활용하여 선행연구들에서 논의하고 있는 객관적 주관적 사회적 고립이 신체적 정신적 건강에 영향을 미치는 다양한 경로를 주효과 분석을 통해 검증하고, 아울러 이질적인 연령집단에 따른 관계를 상호작용효과를 중심으로 검증하였다. 분석자료는 다차원적인 사회적 고립 개념의 특성을 충실히 반영한 KSHAP 1차년도 자료를 활용하였다. 경로모형 분석결과를 정리하자면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 객관적 사회적 고립 수준이 높아질수록 신체적 정신적 건강에 부정적 영향을 미치는 주효과가 유의한 반면, 주관적 사회적 고립은 정신적 건강에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 주효과만이 유의하게 나타났다. 둘째, 사회적 고립과 이질적인 연령집단과의 상호작용효과는 신체적 건강에 대해서 유의하게 나타났다. 구체적으로 객관적 사회적 고립의 수준이 높아질수록 장년층에 비해 전기노인의 경우 신체적 건강의 기울기는 부적으로 보다 낮아지는 것으로 나타났으며, 주관적 사회적 고립의 수준이 높아질수록 장년층에 비해 후기노인의 신체적 건강의 기울기는 부적으로 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 연령집단에 따라 다차원적 사회적 고립과 신체적 건강과의 관계의 양상은 다르게 나타났다. 본 연구결과에 기초하여 신체적 정신적 건강의 위험요인에 해당하는 객관적 사회적 고립과 주관적 사회적 고립의 수준을 낮추기 위한 정책적 시사점에 대해 논의하였다.

A hybrid mid-story seismic isolation system with a smart damper has been proposed to mitigate seismic responses of tall buildings. Based on previous research, a hybrid mid-story seismic isolation system can provide effective control performance for reduction of seismic responses of tall buildings. Structural design of the hybrid mid-story seismic isolation system is generally performed after completion of structural design of a building structure. This design concept is called as an iterative design which is a general design process for structures and control devices. In the iterative design process, optimal design solution for the structure and control system is changed at each design stage. To solve this problem, the integrated optimal design method for the hybrid mid-story seismic isolation system and building structure was proposed in this study. An existing building with mid-story isolation system, i.e. Shiodome Sumitomo Building, was selected as an example structure for more realistic study. The hybrid mid-story isolation system in this study was composed of MR (magnetorheological) dampers. The stiffnessess and damping coefficients of the example building, maximum capacity of MR damper, and stiffness of isolation bearing were simultaneously optimized. Multi-objective genetic optimization method was employed for the simultaneous optimization of the example structure and the mid-story seismic isolation system. The optimization results show that the simultaneous optimization method can provide better control performance than the passive mid-story isolation system with reduction of structural materials.

To obtain the seismic response of lead-cored rubber, shape memory alloy (SMA)-rubber isolation Plate-shell Integrated Concrete Liquid-Storage Structure (PSICLSS), based on a PSICLSS in a water treatment plant, built a scale experimental model, and a shaking table test was conducted. Discussed the seismic responses of rubber isolation, SMA-rubber isolation PSICLSS. Combined with numerical model analysis, the vibration characteristics of rubber isolation PSICLSS are studied. The results showed that the acceleration, liquid sloshing height, hydrodynamic pressure of rubber and SMA-rubber isolation PSICLSS are amplified when the frequency of seismic excitation is close to the main frequency of the isolation PSICLSS. The earthquake causes a significant leakage of liquid, at the same time, the external liquid sloshing height is significantly higher than internal liquid sloshing height. Numerical analysis showed that the low-frequency acceleration excitation causes a more significant dynamic response of PSICLSS. The sinusoidal excitation with first-order sloshing frequency of internal liquid causes a more significant sloshing height of the internal liquid, but has little effect on the structural principal stresses. The sinusoidal excitation with first-order sloshing frequency of external liquid causes the most enormous structural principal stress, and a more significant external liquid sloshing height. In particular, the principal stress of PSICLSSS with long isolation period will be significantly enlarged. Therefore, the stiffness of the isolation layer should be properly adjusted in the design of rubber and SMA-rubber isolation PSICLSS.

In the process of accurate manufacture and measurement, it is necessarily required to isolate external or internal vibration due to external disturbance and internal actuators. The higher vibration isolation system gets damping around resonance, the better it is generally. This paper analyzes the performance of an existing passive air-spring for vibration isolation table by using experiment and simulation. Optimal design for a passive air spring can be obtained by tuning the size of the orifice. Also design for an active isolation system is carried out by applying PID controller and considering non-linearity of pneumatic characteristics with help of look-up table. We have developed the active vibration isolation table with the better isolation performance.

Long term earthquake observations at different tunnel sites within a variety of alluvial soil deposits have demonstrated that a circular tunnel is liable to deform in such a way that its two diagonal diameters crossing each other expand and contract alternately. Based on this knowledge, the soil-tunnel interaction and isolation effect for this particular vibration mode is investigated. Interaction effect is considered with the condition of fixed tangential strain between the tunnel and the soil. Isolation effect embodied by covering up the tunnel with isolation materials is discussed as a possible measure for mitigating seismic damage to it. When Poisson`s ratio of isolation material decreases or the shear modulus ratios of the soil to isolation material become large, the isolation effect becomes bigger.

This study investigates the optimum design parameters of a superelastic friction base isolator (S-FBI) system through a multi-objective genetic algorithm to improve the performance of isolated buildings against near-fault earthquakes. The S-FBI system consists of a flat steel-PTFE sliding bearing and superelastic NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) cables. Sliding bearing limits the transfer of shear across the isolation interface and provides damping from sliding friction. SMA cables provide restoring force capability to the isolation system together with additional damping characteristics. A three-story building is modeled with S-FBI isolation system. Multiple-objective numerical optimization that simultaneously minimizes isolation-level displacements and superstructure response is carried out with a genetic algorithm in order to optimize S-FBI system. Nonlinear time history analyses of the building with optimal S-FBI system are performed. A set of 20 near-fault ground motion records are used in numerical simulations. Results show that S-FBI system successfully control response of the buildings against near-fault earthquakes without sacrificing in isolation efficacy and producing large isolation-level deformations.
